Best Answer: Eyebrows have evolved as being important in the non-verbal communication process to each other. In a million years, the communication of eyebrows will hopefully be understood better, and convey non-verbal thoughts far more expressive than we could possibly fathom now. Here is an example of how eyebrows have evolved in just the past couple of decades.

Also, eyebrows are tweeked into shapes, usually arches. The arch has gotten higher over time. I suspect that the arch is here to stay, but there may be times when a wavy, swoop, or even some fancy design will become popular.

I bet you are also wondering why we even have eyebrows. Well, I've got the link for that as well!

Eyebrows are there to protect your eyes. Sweat from your fore-head and scalp should not enter ur eyes much because of your eyebrows. In a million years eyebrows will become scanty. And If a child would be born with thick eyebrows - he would be the talk of the town !

I would guess that those early primates who had something to keep the sweat out of their eyes were naturally selected for survival over those who didn't since they would be more likely to spot that saber-toothed tiger stalking them and would make better hunters. I doubt very much that there will be anything left of mankind in one million years besides fossils.

eyebrows didn't evolve but humans having less hair did. we only kept hair where we needed it like over our eyes to help trap foreign particles that might get in our eyes...or something. also eyebrows are somehow more appealing than...not eyebrows. so people who over-evolved to not having eyebrows were selected through natural selection to go extinct. I can't explain why we kept hair on other parts of our body though. most of the other places dont make sense, especially pubic hair. and in a million years, if we haven't killed each other off by then, people won't have eyebrows. we will have evolved to a state where we communicate telepathically, therefore any additional information such as facial expressions and body language will not be necessary. everything will be communicated and understood intuitively through telekinesis.

hmm.. i guess evolved (from super hairy) to keep the dust and sweat on your forehead or something from getting into your eyes... maybe.. today they're only there for aesthetic, imo, because there's not as much dust around today as there was a million years ago..

i think.. in a million years.. we will have NO eyebrows because of all the compulsive tweezing and waxing and threading. lol=]

Ha, no way to know. In the more immediate future, eyebrows will evolve towards the average standard of beauty the societies of the world hold. This is due to sexual selection, otherwise know as "the good-looking people have more offspring sooner."

I predict smaller eyebrows in general, with the complete demise of the unibrow. The eyebrow will not vanish, because it is very useful in keeping sweat out of your eyes.

Eyebrows are for keeping sweat and dirt out of your eyes, so if humans sweat less, and the world becomes cleaner, we will eventually lose them, but if the earth gets dirtier and we sweat more, they will get bigger and thicker.
